🆕 Features

Streaming / IO

  • SimpleStreamReader for fast flat tokenised reads.
  • QuietAppender to silence noisy logs during tests.

DOM & selector APIs

  • Selector.evaluatorOf(css) – obtain an Evaluator without building a full Selector.
  • Traversal helpers: NodeVisitor#traverse, NodeFilter#traverse.

Tag System

  • TagSet#onNewTag(Consumer<Tag> customizer) lets libraries register extra behaviour on-the-fly.

🐛 Bug Fixes

  • Networking – always close HttpClient after each request.
    If you need a long-lived client, inject it with the new engine-factory hook.
  • HTML parsing
    • Scripts inside <svg> now handled in ScriptData state.
    • No whitespace trimming when the previous element was inline.
  • Miscellaneous – fixed typo in parser messages and other small logic/test issues.

🔋 Performance

  • TokenQueue now reuses its CharacterReader buffer, reducing allocations under heavy tokenisation.

📈 Tests & Coverage

  • Added coverage for Tag and TokenData.
  • New ksoup-network-test module with mocks.
  • Coverage for calculate-position logic.

🗑️ Deprecations & Removals

  • Removed legacy deprecated code and TODO placeholders.
  • Ktor2 APIs now deprecated – migrate to the Ktor 3 variant.
